New order葉artufo/black?
Hi! First time poster here. Long story short, I originally ordered my GLS back in early March, order was cancelled due to COVID and is just now has a build spot for 2021 model. I had originally selected the Tartufo/Black interior, but it is now delayed. If I switch the interior (macchiato) I can have the car by November, if I leave it as is we池e probably looking at January. I知 trying to decide if it痴 worth the wait. So, 2 questions:
1. Has anyone gotten a GLS with the tartufo/black interior? If so how do you like it and can you please post pictures?
2. People who chose the macchiato interior揺ow has it held up to dirt and stains? I ride horses and have kids, and am worried about keeping it looking clean.
Please and thank you!

I have the macchiato leather interior and after 9 months of somewhat light use and one long(6,000 mile) road trip there are no stains on any of the seats, however if I do any outdoor activities or take it into the dealer I put towels down on the seats to prevent dirt accumulating. The only issues I have had were a grease stain the dealer got on my sunroof shade that I had to spend about a half an hour treating with stain remover and a vinegar mixture, and an incident involving my mother and some lipstick getting on the seats. Both ended up coming out entirely but I almost had a panic attack when I saw them. I used 3 in 1 leather conditioner cleaner and protector on the seats and it got the stain off easily.

I have Macchiato and after only a couple of weeks I noticed my black jeans were rubbing off onto the seat. It came off easily with some leather wipes. You definitely have to be a little more careful with a light interior.
But I still love it because the light interior plus the panorama sunroof make the car feel incredibly spacious.

CAR
I ordered a tartufo interior back in December, 2019 along with the metal weave trim. My car is finally at the VPC and should arrive at the dealership , hopefully by next week. The dealership actually ordered 2 cars at the time "for me" as the tartufo was delayed and so was the metal weave trim. The sister car to mine arrived at the dealership about 3 weeks ago. It had the walnut brown trim with the tartufo seats. As I expected, I did not care for the walnut trim with the tartufo. But the tartufo seats were very, very nice. I have to say I was happy to have ordered it and am excited to see my actual build (soon!!). Pictures will be taken!

Thank you, Calla! They do look very nice in person. I agree with you about the walnut brown trim; the metal weave should look nice. I have mine specced with the matt dark gray oak (which looks pretty black). Maybe it痴 worth the wait....
